Tracking

Duration: 4 days starting at 19.00 on the first day and finishing at 16.00 on the last day.

Course content: tracking, awareness exercises, sign and track interpretation, plaster casts, wildlife observation

Tracking is a fascinating subject and a skill that most of us can acquire with the correct training. Under the expert guidance of a wildlife biologist you will look at tracking theory, carry out some exercises to open your senses and increase your awareness of the signs around you everywhere. You will look at animal footprints, trails, signs and skulls. How tracks age with time in different condition and substrates. How to interpret direction and gait and how trails change in different terrains. How to take plaster casts. You will work on your ability to follow human trails over different substrates. You will also learn to move quietly in the woodland and how to observe animals and stalk them.

This is an inspirational course where you literally open your senses to all the signs around you in the woodland and really have time to settle.
